Why GamerGate Won't Die. 10/19/2014

expectmore HOME SPORTS PROGR WEATHER NEWS PHOTOS Why #Gamergate won't die Pasted: Oct 19, 2014 11:11 AM PST Updated Oct 19, 2014 11:11 AM PST By David Weinberger Editor's note: David Weinberger is a senior researcher at Harvard University's Berkman Center for Internet & Society and author of "Too Big to Know" (Basic Books). The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of the author (CNN) It began as an attempt to shut up one woman - a video-game developer who had criticized the entrenched sexism and misogyny in her industry-by "slut-shaming" her and then threatening As other women entered the conversation that was spreading across the Web, male gamer bullies organized to stamp them down as well, some of them adopting Gamergate as the rubric for their "movement." When the argument finally caught the attention of mainstream media, the controversy was no longer only about the original issues. It had also become about who gets to determine the real meaning of Gamergate So, what is Gamergate? Explaining it makes Watergate look like a piece of cake. ("You see, kids burglars broke into Democratic Party offices, and the Republican president tried to cover it up." Easy!) Not Gamergate. For one thing, unraveling the truth about the 1972 breakin at the Democratic National Committee offices fell to professional journalists and the legal system. For Gamergate -now a catchall term for a kind of culture war sprung from the gaming world, taking in issues of sexism, free speech, journalistic ethics, identity and more - the most timely and thoughtful coverage is coming from people who are affected by it. And now that we get to hear every person's voice, online, there is no single national narrato That means how you explain Gamergate depends on why you think it's worth explaining. For example, just calling it by that name implies that it's about some type of scurrilous behavior, in this case a breach of journalistic ethics (which we'll get to in a minute). Yet, if that's all it were about, it would have sunk without a ripple. After all, there's no evidence that there was any breach, and even if there were, why go after a woman who is a tiny indie game developer instead of the $100 billion mainstream industry that dwarfs Hollywood in its ability to unduly influence society and the media? So, if it's not about that, then what is it about? Here are the facts, but they don't tell the whole story. Zoe Quinn is one of the creators of "Depression Quest," an award-winning indie game released in 2013 that, unlike the typical run-and-gun games puts the player in the text-based shoes of a depressed teenager. About a month ago, an ex-boyfriend claimed the game had gotten a particular good review on a gaming news site only because (the angry ex-boyfriend claimed) Quinn had had sex with the reviewer which Quinn denies. Even though the journalist hadn't actually written a review, and the gaming news site found no wrongdoing, this triggered an avalanche of attacks on Quinn's ethics from some of the Internet's danker forums including threats of r--- and murder The fury directed at women went beyond Quinn and beyond the Web.

#1779 Edited by spacekatgal (120 posts)-40 minutes, 18 seconds ago @korlic said If you go to your doctor and they tell you you have 10 problems but they won't tell you what they are or how to remedy them then you may as well not have gone at all. It's not for me to say whether any rules or changes will be implemented but isn't it worthwhile putting some of them out there? Most of the reason I stopped supporting Giant Bomb came from my slow awareness that they were actively indifferent to issues of women in this field. Take my GOTY article from January 1st. That was a MASSIVELY popular piece, so popular I was paid twice what I agreed to. I got r--- and death threats from Giant Bomb users I never received an apology or commentary from any of the senior staff of Giant Bomb, though Patrick reached out. They chose to never discuss it. This was my first bout with threats to my life, and they scared the hell out of me As I've said many times, I was really horrified by them choosing to not stand up to what their site did to Samantha Allen- If I had to point to one event that shook my faith in the innate goodness of the men in this industry, this was it. As I understand it, none of the senior staff ever reached out to her to personally apologize. I know she found their statement lukewarm and very equivocal Look, if my company did something that cost someone their career, you'd better believe I'd reach out to them. Privately, publicly. They only delivered a statement after she'd chosen to leave the industry. I'm not trying to be dramatic, but I don't understand how Jeff Gerstmann sleeps at night. I can only guess that he doesn't care It made me realize they aren't the people thought they were. As I said earlier, a woman who worked with them told me, "Great guys, but they love to put their head in the sand on women's issues." I met Ryan Davis before I had a job in games. We talked about Resident Evil for about 15 minutes. He talked to me entirely like an equal, and was very nice to me when I was just a nobody. It's really hard for me to reconcile that Giant Bomb with the Giant Bomb that didn't stand up the bullies in the community This issue aside, the overall lack of awareness of the representation of women is troubling. I pointed to this in my GOTY piece, but when Vinny just blustered past the Tomb Raider reboot, which was written by Rhianna Pratchet? It made me realize that the things that were important to me weren't important to them. If they came to me tomorrow and asked me how they could make the site more welcoming? Here are three things I'd suggest. A. Patrick cannot be the only person trying to reach out to women. The rest of the staff needs to make an effort and they need to prove it to their audience B. They need to put women on staff C. They need to raise their consciousness on the industry issues that affect women. Again, heads in the sand Jeff Gerstmann has the privilege of staying out of this. For women like me, Zoe Quinn, Samantha Allen - we DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE. I can't ignore a freight train coming towards us Giant Bomb feels silence is not consent. That's because they don't understand very much about the realities we face

Heads Up KYM

A Perspective from Someone Outside the Gaming Industry The Leader of Gamergate 10/20/14 (Mon) 05:11:44 ID: df1d82 No. 192995 Watch Thread] Hello 8Chan I've been lurking around for a while and have been aware about the entire GamerGate situation since around the end of September. I wish to remain anonymous because of what has happened to other people who work and come out for GamerGate, but since l don't like or operate inside the USA I should be safe but don't want to take any chances. I'm here to say one thing You guys are doing a lot better than this board is saying Let me explain, I work for a specialist recruitment company in the UK, we usually get posting from most industries but our key focus is banking and IT Firms (Software engineers etc.). We look for those that are the best for the position, both in skills and personality, which means aside from the usual references and educational establishments, we look through social medias sites like FaceBook and Twitter This for two major reasons. First, we want to know what this person is like personality wise. We don't care about what movies these people are watching or any of those e-cards with inspirational quotes, we look for anything that could be consider extremely vulgar. Signs of discrimination based upon sex, income, or race are the things we look out for. If they are proven to hold these views, regardless of whether or not they could be a descendant of Hercules himself he will be thrown out of the candidate list instantly Second, we look for signs of how they interact with other people. How well they do under scrutiny, and viewpoints that are different to their own. This is important because the minute they are hired into a company, they formally represent the company when they are working, both in real life and on the internet. The reason I am telling you all this is because the things that I have seen come from the profiles of the GamesJournoPro people are complete career killers. Gawker is proving themselves to be a vile pit of hate and discrimination and everyone working at said company are going to be painted with the same brush. When they leave and try to hire them, the employer or recruitment company is going to do some research and find out everything they've said to their consumer base. I don't need to tell you how bad insulting your key demographic looks to your company. You are killing them in this regard and they know it. If GamerGate goes on the way it is, I would not be surprised if we hear that these people go onto benefits because no company worth their weight in salt would dare hire them But this is the problem, the people calling you every name under the sun know that this information removes any chance of a better job outside of the Games "Journal" industry. I predict that once their plan on trying to get as much media spotlight on you guys as possible, they'll work tirelessly to remove any and all evidence that they've attacked and insulted the GamerGate movement. My guess would be they'd start on discussions within places like Escapist Magazine before moving onto places like KnowYourMeme which holds thousands of screencaps of their Twitter feeds. Regardless of whether they stop the GamerGate discussion they don't want the mud on their sleeves I want to give you some advice in regards to this 1. Screencap EVERYTHING - regardless of whether or not it's Pro and Anti GamerGate, everything needs to be recorded, arguments no matter how small can work against these people. Nobody wants an employee that has shown that he or she has no trouble talking down to a consumer base 2. Back it all up - KnowYourMeme is doing a good job but that's only one place. When they target the site, and they will target that place, the information stored could be lost from public eye for a while. Making sure everything you dig up on these people is safe and backed up, even if it is on someone's external hard drive, makes sure that the information gets out. The Streisand Effect is real but it needs you guys to start whenever information gets hidden. 3. Never provoke them- Trying to get a rise out of these people, no matter how much you can justify it, won't work. If they retaliate one could argue that they were provoked and it has less effect. But if someone argues politely and displays their points in a way that is clear and well thought out, and then they hurl insults and rage, that looks bad Some of you think that them going on air a slandering the GamerGate movement is their way of attacking you, it's not. It is just an effort to try and keep the spotlight away from their own malpractices for the time being, but it is only delaying the inevitable. This is doing more damage to them than your constant emails to advertiser, though that as well is a good way to remove their platforms. And since there's probably at least two people from KnowYourMeme here, good job and keep it up From someone within the recruitment Industry Good luck, and God's Speed

Number 5 is especially important

#GamerGate for Dummies ~ (l.e. ECN 101-By Sophia Eris @hiddentra n ny) 1. Customers visit multiple competing media organizations for information. 2. Customers are tipped off about unethical practices between competing media organizations and the products they review, and or report on. 3. Customers get upset and want answers. Yet receive none. 4. Customers turn to social media to discuss the unethical practices 5. Mass censorship of customers across multi-mediums ensues. 6. Customers find out the competing media organizations are working together in feeding them a premeditated narrative chosen for dissemination in secrecy. 7. Customers get upset and want answers. Yet receive none. 8. Competing media organizations simultaneously launch a media campaign against its customers. 9. Customers respond by reaching out to advertisers. 10. Advertisers look at the evidence and begin to pull funding to various media organizations. 11. Competing media organizations use all possible resources, recruiting more competing media organizations to escalate the attacks on the customer. 12. Customers get upset and want answers. Yet receive none. Repression is the only lasting philosophy. The dark deference of fear and slavery, my friend," observed the Marquis, "will keep the dogs obedient to the whip, as long as this roof," looking up to it, "shuts out the sky."

CODE <MASSIVE, MASSIVE HEADS UP, #GG> l'm not sure if anyone has realized this yet (judging by what l've seen, I don't think ANYONE's picked up on it, since it's beein very, very subtle so far), but anti-#GG figureheads have been quietly taking steps to move themselves into a position where they can reach out to the rest of the "gamer" public (the ones clueless about the ongoing #GG conflict) from a more unassailable position RED What they are starting to do is quietly bury the whole "gamers are dead" sentiment, while subtly spinning the narrative to say that the people supporting #GamerGate are not TRUE gamers, and JUST an army of trolls and harassers APART FROM the rest of the gamer community. It is my belief that a big part of the "trump card" they are going to play this coming week will be the kick-off of this new strategy, and if they beat us to the punch on this, it could make things difficult for the movement.

Those sites are officially toxic assets to anti-#GG now since they have no real use anymore, and are slowly being dumped by them We have to keep the pressure on those sites, but we also need to find some way to focus on getting our true intent WELL BEYOND the Twitter movement, because the way things are slowly being moved, we could find ourselves at odds with the very people we are fighting for. Things were different when anti-GG took the hardline stance against gamers. Now that they see how powerful and influential we can be, and now that they have real fear of what could happen if we got the rest of OUR PEOPLE involved in this, they are trying to find any back-door they can to weasel through and subjugate We gotta step it up. We gotta get a bit more mainstream than we are currently. We have to reach out to the rest of our community before these f------ spinsters do.
